Statement (1) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (2) alone is not sufficient to answer the question asked.
Option B:
Statement (2) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (1) alone is not sufficient to answer the question asked.

EasySolution
Option B is the correct answer.
Option Analysis
Length of line segment PQ?
Statement I is insufficient: From this, we only infer that RS = ST. Nothing about PQ. So not sufficient.
Statement II is sufficient:
If PT = 10 and QT = 6
Then PQ = 4
Sufficient.
